For an ODE <pre> x' = f(x, u, t), x(0) = x0 </pre> This solver uses the following formula to solve it: <pre> x(t+h) = x(t) + h*x'(t+h) </pre> where x(t) is the current state, x(t+h) is the next state, h is the step size, and x'(t+h) is the derivative of x at t+h. The formula above is an algebraic equation, and this solver uses fixed point iteration to solve it. <P> This solver does not perform step size control even when the states do not converge after the maximum number of iterations is reached. However, CT directors may try to reduce step size.
